Acrographinotus ornatus (Roewer, 1929) View in CoL comb. n. Fig. 16

Unduavius ornatus Roewer, 1929: 244, fig. 28 (♂); Kury 2003: 195; (syntypes from NHMW, not examined, probably lost).

Material examined.

BOLIVIA. La Paz: Nor Yungas (Unduavi), 1 male & 6 females (SMF 2881/79; syntypes according to Acosta (1996), which was previously referred to as belonging to Naturhistorisches Museum, Wien. We acknowledge them as syntypes together with those in SMF RII 995/52).

Diagnosis.

Acrographinotus ornatus can be easily distinguished from other species of the genus by the blister-like, enlarged, brown tubercles on whitish scutal areas I–IV; posterior margin of dorsal scutum and free tergites I–II with a row of enlarged tubercles and white spots on lateral and posterior margin of dorsal scutum and coxa IV.

Description.

Penis (Fig. 16 A–B; SMF 2881): ventral plate with 3 distal pairs of long setae, 0-2 median pairs of short setae, 4-5 basal pairs of setae. Stylus almost straight (apex slightly bent), smooth. Distal ventral process shaped as an ibis head.
